The first cartoon, Fantasmagorie, from 1908



Fantasmagorie is the first animated cartoon, ever (or to have survived), created by a French caricaturist Émile Cohl. The animation contains about 700 drawings, all of which were double-exposed. The cartoon has a running time of almost two minutes.

ÉmileCohl worked for a French studio--Gaumont--when he created this animation.
